Columbia Financial, Inc. Announces Financial Results

for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2020

Fair Lawn, New Jersey (April 29, 2020): Columbia Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CLBK), the mid-tier holding company for Columbia Bank (the "Bank"), reported net income of $6.8 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, as compared to net income of $14.9 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was mainly the result of a higher provision for loan losses driven primarily by increases to macro-economic qualitative factors impacted by the ongoing COVID -19 pandemic. The increase in the provision for loan losses coupled with an increase in non-interest expense was partially offset by an increase in net interest income driven by an increase in interest on loans due to the growth in the Bank's loan portfolio. The Company elected to defer the adoption of the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") methodology permitted by the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"). The Company will adopt CECL at the earlier of December 31, 2020 or when the national emergency has concluded.

Mr. Thomas J. Kemly, President and Chief Executive Officer commented: "We are operating in an extraordinary environment and are working tirelessly to ensure the safety and financial stability of our customers, employees, and communities. We have deployed a comprehensive support program, ensured our branches are open for servicing, and are leveraging digital capabilities to provide continuous service for our clients. We are actively working with our commercial and consumer borrowers to ease their cash flow concerns by providing short-term loan modifications and Paycheck Protection Program loans when possible. Additionally, the Bank has financed a 500 bed emergency field hospital located at the New Jersey Convention and Exposition Center in Edison and the Columbia Bank Foundation has pledged nearly $600,000 to non-profit organizations in need and medical facilities.”

Results of Operations for the Quarters Ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019

Net income of $6.8 million was recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $8.2 million, or 54.7%, compared to net income of $14.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a $9.1 million increase in provision for loan losses and an $8.9 million increase in non-interest expense, partially offset by an $8.3 million increase in net interest income.

Net interest income was $50.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $8.3 million, or 19.6%, from $42.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to an $11.8 million increase in interest income which was partially offset by a $3.5 million increase in interest expense. The increase in interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was largely due to increases in the average balances on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets, which was the result of internal growth and the acquisition of Stewardship Financial Corporation in November 2019, partially offset by decreases in the average yields on these assets.

The average yield on loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 decreased 10 basis points to 4.15%, as compared to 4.25% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, while the average yield on securities for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 decreased 21 basis points to 2.72%, as compared to 2.93% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The average yield on other interest-earning assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 decreased 156 basis points to 5.06%, as compared to 6.62% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. Decreases in the average yields on these portfolios for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were influenced by the lower interest rate environment.

Total interest expense was $24.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $3.5 million, or 17.0%, from $20.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to increases in the average balances of all categories of interest-bearing deposits totaling $929.1 million, partially offset by a 3 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits. The decrease in the cost of deposits was primarily driven by a lower interest rate environment. Interest on borrowings increased due to an increase of $247.6 million in the average balance of borrowings, which was partially offset by a 40 basis point decrease in the cost of these borrowings due to a lower interest rate environment.

The Company's net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 decreased 5 basis points to 2.65%, when compared to 2.70% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The weighted average yield on interest-earning assets decreased 9 basis points to 3.91% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as compared to 4.00% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 11 basis points to 1.58% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as compared to 1.69% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in yields and costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were largely driven by a lower market rate environment.

The provision for loan losses was $9.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $9.1 million, from $436,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to consideration of the deterioration of economic conditions and loan performance due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in increases to qualitative factors.

Non-interest expense was $38.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $8.9 million, or 30.3%, from $29.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation and employee benefits expense of $4.9 million, an increase in merger-related expenses of $1.1 million, and an increase in other non-interest expense of $2.3 million. The increase in compensation and employee benefits expense was primarily attributable to an increase of $2.1 million in expense recorded in connection with grants made under the Company's 2019 Equity Incentive Plan and an increase in expense due to a larger number of employees in the 2020 period inclusive of Stewardship employees. Merger-related expenses include expenses related to the Company's acquisition of Stewardship Financial Corporation in November 2019 and Roselle Bank, which closed on April 1, 2020. The increase in other non-interest expense consists of $1.3 million recorded in connection with branch consolidation due to the Stewardship merger and $757,000 related to swap transactions.

Income tax expense was $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $1.3 million, as compared to $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The Company's effective tax rate was 25.0% and 19.0% for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, as the 2019 state income tax effective rate was lower due to various tax benefits.

Balance Sheet Summary

Total assets increased $136.4 million, or 1.7%, to $8.3 billion at March 31, 2020 from $8.2 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets was primarily attributable to increases in debt securities available for sale of $18.1 million, loans receivable, net, of $45.4 million, and other assets of $73.4 million.

Debt securities available for sale increased $18.1 million, or 1.6%, to $1.1 billion at March 31, 2020. The increase was attributable to purchases of $50.5 million in mortgage-backed securities, partially offset by maturities and calls of $1.7 million in U.S. agency obligations and municipal securities, repayments of $34.8 million in mortgage-backed securities, and sales of $20.8 million in mortgage-backed securities. The gross unrealized gain on debt securities available for sale increased by $24.8 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Loans receivable, net, increased $45.4 million, or 0.7%, to $6.2 billion at March 31, 2020 from $6.1 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase was mainly attributable to increases in multifamily and commercial real estate, construction and commercial business loans of $37.6 million, $18.0 million, and $12.9 million, respectively, partially offset by decreases in one-to-four family real estate loans and home equity loans and advances of $5.1 million and $8.4 million, respectively. The allowance for loan loss balance increased $9.5 million to $71.2 million at March 31, 2020 from $61.7 million at December 31, 2019, which was primarily attributable to consideration of the deterioration of economic conditions and loan performance due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in increases to qualitative factors. The current allowance for loan losses was calculated utilizing the existing incurred loss methodology.

Other assets increased $73.4 million, or 50.4%, to $219.1 million at March 31, 2020 from $145.7 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in other assets consisted of a $21.2 million right-of-use asset recognized in connection with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02-Leases, a $27.9 million increase in the collateral balance related to our swap agreement obligations, and a $15.8 million increase in interest rate swap fair value adjustments.

Total liabilities increased $157.7 million, or 2.2%, to $7.4 billion at March 31, 2020 from $7.2 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in total deposits of $126.6 million, or 2.2%, and an increase in accrued expenses

and other liabilities of $60.0 million, or 50.9%, partially offset by a decrease in borrowings of $30.1 million, or 2.1%. The increase in total deposits was primarily driven by an increase in non-interest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits of $80.9 million and $29.7 million, respectively, which was related to borrowers drawing funds from their credit lines and depositing the funds into their business accounts. Money market accounts also increased $12.8 million during the quarter. The increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities consisted of a $22.4 million lease liability recognized in connection with the adoption of ASU 2016-02-Leases, and a $30.6 million increase in interest rate swap liabilities. The decrease in borrowings was primarily driven by maturing long-term borrowings of $56.1 million and a net decrease in short-term borrowings of $23.8 million, which more than offset the proceeds from new long-term borrowings of $50.0 million.

Total stockholders’ equity decreased $21.4 million, or 2.2%, to $961.1 million at March 31, 2020 from $982.5 million at December 31, 2019. The net decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in unrealized losses on swap transactions of $14.4 million, and the repurchase of approximately 2,557,000 shares of common stock for $40.4 million during the quarter under our stock repurchase program, partially offset by net income of $6.8 million, coupled with improved fair values on debt securities within our available for sale portfolio of $24.8 million.

Asset Quality

The Company's non-performing loans at March 31, 2020 totaled $10.7 million, or 0.17% of total gross loans, as compared to $6.7 million, or 0.08% of total gross loans, at December 31, 2019. The $4.0 million increase in non-performing loans was primarily attributable to increases of $1.4 million in one-to-four family real estate loans, $1.4 million in multifamily and commercial real estate loans and $1.2 million in commercial business loans. The increase in non-performing one-to-four family real estate loans was due to an increase in the number of loans from 10 non-performing loans at December 31, 2019 to 12 non-performing loans at March 31, 2020. The increase in multifamily and commercial real estate loans was due to an increase in the number of loans from 7 non-performing loans at December 31, 2019 to 11 non-performing loans at March 31, 2020. The increase in non-performing commercial business loans was primarily attributable to the addition of a $1.5 million commercial loan during the quarter. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets totaled 0.13% at March 31, 2020 as compared to 0.08% at December 31, 2019.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, net charge-offs totaled $78,000 as compared to $6,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

The Company's allowance for loan losses was $71.2 million, or 1.14% of total loans at March 31, 2020, compared to $61.7 million, or 1.00% of total loans, at December 31, 2019. The increase in the allowance for loan loss ratio is primarily attributable to an increase in qualitative factors resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

COVID-19

As of April 24, 2020, the Company had received approximately $900 million of commercial loan modification requests including multi-family, commercial, and construction real estate loans, and approximately $130 million of consumer related loan modification requests including one-to-four real estate loans and home equity loans and advances from our customers affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. These short-term loan modifications will be treated in accordance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act and will not be treated as troubled debt restructurings during the short-term modification period if the loan was not in arrears at December 31, 2019. Furthermore, these loans will continue to accrue interest and will not be tested for impairment during the short-term modification period. Commercial loan modification requests include various industries and property types.

The Company's commercial exposures to restaurant, caterers, hotels, and travel total approximately $80 million. Exposure to retail stores, shopping centers and other retail businesses totaled approximately $700 million. The weighted average loan to value ratio on mortgages collateralized by retail stores and shopping centers was approximately 59%. The Company has no direct exposure related to the oil industry or leveraged loans.

Between April 3, 2020 and April 16, 2020, the Company originated approximately 1,600 loans for $394.1 million under the Small Business Association's ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program and expects to recognize approximately $12.8 million in fees which will be net against costs, deferred and amortized over the life of the loan. If any of these loans are sold to the SBA, the US Treasury o

r in a secondary market, any unamortized net fees will be included in the gain or loss on the sale of these loans. The Company plans on originating additional SBA Paycheck Protection Program loans under the recently signed stimulus bill.

Merger with RSB Bancorp

On April 1, 2020 the Company announced that Columbia Bank MHC, the Company and Columbia Bank completed their acquisition of RSB Bancorp, MHC, RSB Bancorp, Inc., and Roselle Bank. At the effective time of the merger, Roselle Bank was merged with and into Columbia Bank and depositors of Roselle Bank became depositors of Columbia Bank, with the same rights and privileges in Columbia Bank MHC as if their accounts had been established in Columbia Bank on the date established at Roselle Bank.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reported amounts are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). This press release also contains certain supplemental non-GAAP information that the Company’s management uses in its analysis of the Company’s financial results. Specifically, the Company provides measures based on what it believes are its operating earnings on a consistent basis, and excludes material non-routine operating items which affect the GAAP reporting of results of operations. The Company’s management believes that providing this information to analysts and investors allows them to better understand and evaluate the Company’s core financial results for the periods in question. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

The Company also provides measurements and ratios based on tangible stockholders' equity. These measures are commonly utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and, therefore, the Company’s management believes that such information is useful to investors.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are included at the end of this press release. See "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures".
